Working with multiple dropbox accounts

I added a dropbox web connection with my concern user, everything worked out. After that, I wanted to add another dropbox web connection, but this time with another user. Unfortunately the login did not work out (see screenshot). I tried to clear cache and cookies from my standard browser, change standard browser to be sure that nothing is cached in the background, but still the same message appeared. I also tried to delete the other web connection, but still same issue occured.

Does anyone have ideas how to solve this?

Hello @gimgis​ , I was unable to reproduce your issue, as I successfully connected with 2 seperate DropBox accounts. I'm wondering if you accidently hit a "Remember me" checkbox on the login page or similar? (I didn't see one when I authenticated however). I would recommend trying to reconnect after purging your temporary folder / cache in FME (Tools > Purge Temporary Files). Hope this helps, Kailin.

Hello @kailinatsafe​ , thanks a lot for your response. Purging the temporary files like you described solved the issue. 👍 I did not know this tool before. Thanks, Hubert
